The School of Port City Ballet opened it’s studio doors in August of 2024 under the direction of Nova Johnstone.

At The School of Port City Ballet, we believe that every dancer deserves to be supported, challenged, and inspired. We offer world-class training rooted in the traditions of classical ballet, complemented by jazz, contemporary, and pointe programs that create versatile, confident, and expressive artists.

What makes us unique is not only the excellence of our instruction but also the warmth of our community. Our students receive individual attention, thoughtful guidance, and opportunities to shine through performances, assessments, and mentorship with guest artists. More than a studio, we are a home where young dancers are encouraged to grow in strength, artistry, and confidence while feeling truly valued and cared for.

With us, students don’t just learn to dance — they learn to love the discipline, beauty, and joy of ballet, carrying these lessons into every part of their lives.
